   About Karthik Kakarala
Tired of the "StandAlone Player" standing you up in terms of giving you our audio? Want to see me elsewhere on the Internet? Some of this stuff (soon to be almost all of the same stuff, if not more... minus the MySpace friends) is also now hosted at Virb. __________________________________________________________________________ One became two, and so on, in this fashion: 1-->2-->3-->6-->2-->1-->5!

There was no help that was sought, and nothing left to hold me at bay.

I gave up having a band for a year, save for a duo performance with sometimes collaborator Doug Raber (audio currently hosted above) at NoiseFeSTL IV (2007).
Now, I've revived the Ensemble (full NoiseFeSTL performance below in YouTube clips), and have injected new life into all other projects by enabling them to have solo versions, it's time to see what happens when all the limits are effectively removed.

Here, now, is the NoiseFeSTL performance that ushered in the return of the Ensemble, at the Lemp Neighborhood Arts Center in St. Louis, from mid-October 2008:


I turned to my new found home of Carbondale and, a year after moving there, more than a season after my first Carbondale radio performance, was let loose upon a local basement: Part 1:


Part 2:


The day after my spring radio performance and in the late part of June, I took my revived solo form to the Lemp Neighborhood Arts Center:

Part I:


Part II:


Back in spring (April 26th), I played live on the radio from 5-6 A.M.:


Part 1:


Part 2:
